Deceiver (In Your Wake)

Deceiver, whyʼd you leave all of us to live in your wake?
Deceiver, another fake

How can you say youʼve changed? You still stand to defy
Your lies tell a different tale from the one your tongue provides
I see youʼve made efforts but with no real conviction
Forever to live in your homemade prison
I gave my heart, repaid with selfishness
Dust collects on all your promises
The years decay all of your hollow gifts

Deceiver, whyʼd you leave all of us to live in your wake?
Deceiver, another fake

In your deception, you sealed your fate
Cut from the bosom, the hand that feeds
I hope you pray for redemption
Only to hear the silence as it swallows you

Deceiver, whyʼd you leave all of us to live in your wake?
Deceiver, another fake

One day youʼll see just what youʼve done
Only to notice itʼs all too late
A silent calm becomes a deafening void
Desperation, deprivation
For all of those who were damaged in your wake
Iʼll see the day when you cry for me

Deceiver, whyʼd you leave all of us to live in your wake?
Deceiver, another fake
Iʼll see the day
See the day
